Your trust is our top concern.

We strive to keep reviews honest, trustworthy, and fair.

Doctors can not pay for good reviews, nor can they pay to have negative reviews removed.

We monitor all reviews to ensure they comply with our guidelines and don’t include personal information, profanity, libel, defamation, harassment, obscenity or fraud.

Any reviews that are deemed fraudulent or violate our guidelines will be removed immediately.

All reviews are confirmed and audited before publication, and community members have the ability to flag inappropriate content for further review by our team.

Been going to Dr Desai for 10 yrs. He is everything you want in a doctor. Caring, patient kind takes the time to explain results and answers all questions. I am so happy and lucky to have chosen him when l moved to ZH.

Absolutely Amazing
Not only did I work with Dr. Desai at one point, but he was also my primary care physician as well. He is truly a wonderful, caring, knowledgeable, and efficient doctor. He takes the time to learn you and listens to not only your concerns for the visit, but your concerns period. I truly wish I still lived in Florida and could see Dr. Desai as my doctor. Blessed to have been his patient.

Best Doctor I have ever had
Dr.Desai has been my internal medicine physician for eight years. He is always prepared to discuss and evaluate all of my concerns and explain whatever the subject entails fully so that I understand it.If he doesn't know,he will search while I am there and show me the result,explain it and offer ideas on the proper follow up,diagnosis and treatments. I trust his expertise and judgement. If he doesn't know the answer,he will find it and let me know. He cares about his patients. A professional,cordial, intelligent, insightful person. I highly recommend him as a top quality Doctor.

Dr. Desai has been my internist for about 15 years. He always listens to what I have to say and is interested in my opinions and thoughts about my health care. I've changes insurance companies over the years to stay in his care. That's how much I trust him.
